OUTPut2
:ATTenuation <attenuation>
:IMPedance <impedance>
:OVERload? [query only]
[:STATe] <mode>
:ACTual? [query only]
OUTPut2 is the root keyword of the command, :ATTenuation, :IMPedance,
:OVERload?, and [:STATe] are second level keywords, and :ACTual? is the
third level keyword.
Command
Separator
A colon (:) always separates one command keyword from a lower level
command keyword as shown below:
OUTP2:STAT:ACT?
Abbreviated
Commands
The command syntax shows most commands as a mixture of upper and
lower case letters. The upper case letters indicate the abbreviated spelling
for the command. For shorter program lines, send the abbreviated form. For
better program readability, you may send the entire command. The amplifier
will accept either the abbreviated form or the entire command.
For example, if a command’s syntax contains the keyword IMPedance, then
IMP and IMPEDANCE are acceptable forms. Lower or upper case letters
are also acceptable. Thus, IMPedance, impedance, IMP, or imp are all
acceptable.
Implied (Optional)
Keywords
Implied or optional keywords are those which appear in square brackets ([ ])
in the command syntax. The brackets are not part of the command, and are
not sent to the amplifier. Suppose you send the following command:
OUTP2 ON
In this case, the amplifier responds as if the command was executed as:
OUTP2:STAT ON
